Downloads : Monitoring of AF: Symptoms, intermittent or continuous

"Continuous EGM monitoring is able to identify significantly more patients with AF episodes than routine FU based on symptomatic recurrences or standard Holter monitoring over 24 hours, 48 hours, or even 7 days. To conclude that a patient is free of atrial fibrillation based on patient-reported symptoms is often unreliable. Continuous monitoring is highly desirable for both scientific (success rates in AF interventions) and clinical issues (anticoagulation management)."
